A violation of every single of the "3Cs" guidance by the govt to prevent coronavirus: crowded, confined, close-contact.

Seriously, they couldnt think of a smarter/safer way of celebrating the event?

Someone misunderstood the instruction "You must be wearing a mask when you take public transport"

Irresponsible and ludicrous, really.

but thanks to the thirst for sensation of the media, they got what they intended to get. Exposure and publicity. Well done Japan Today.

LOL, I guess you did not notice that fans were wearing masks. FYI the wrestlers had their temperatures taken as well the passengers.

Not myy idea of fun train ride - being in very close quarters with sweaty male wrestlers in the middle of a pandemic - but, hey, whatever trips your trigger.

Unbelievable. If I saw this I'd think somebody put some LSD into my soft drink.

Coronavirus pandemic and we are having indoor wrestling in train cars. This is insane????

It's absolute stupidity to do this in the current environment.

All of this fear mongering is not constructive. To everyone commenting about the COVID situation, it looks like everyone is having a good time. Rather than something negative isn't it good to have something good occurring. How about everyone try focusing on enjoying themselves. If someone has any concerns, they do not have to stay and watch the event.

The government should shut this down and put the promoter and participants in jail. Why, because they are exposing many people to the virus and spreading it. Profit over protection???

The event was held in a specially designated carriage for ticket purchasing spectators, and the wrestlers were all tested, and the viewers had their temperature taken.
